https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror/blob/master/include/config_params.h https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror/blob/master/common/config_params.cpp "// Project settings are saved in the corresponding <board name>.pro file" This is a good tool to save in .pro if I used it in 3d-viewer and add the existent options to .pro will that be consider a change format in .pro files? Or I am freely to change, add, remove that configuration options? For example, on 3d-viewer, I saw some user requests for the mask color should be saved per project.

For instance, have a look at PARAM_CFG_ARRAY& SCH_EDIT_FRAME::GetProjectFileParametersList() and bool SCH_EDIT_FRAME::LoadProjectFile() in eeschema_config.cpp -- Jean-Pierre CHARRAS _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
